Three friends - an elderly dandy, a television philosopher, a former everything and now nothing - navigate the pitfalls of life. Three friends, so different from each other, coexist and try to give meaning to everyday life, rather convinced that they cannot intervene in the course of events. A jagged jazz that went mad, History.
What happens in this novel? Almost nothing. Just like in real life. However, everything is at stake, everything is open, as long as there are people, and especially people who have the strength to get teary-eyed, to cry, to weep. Julian Treslove, Libor Sevcik, and Sam Finkler are initiated into the alchemy of laughter that mocks their sorrows, celebrate a wonderfully limping eroticism, and invoke hope at the edge of the night.
Howard Jacobson's masterpiece celebrates the wonderful awkwardness of being human and, with laughter, warns us that if you dream of lit candles, sometimes you might find the sheets burned when you wake up. However, this is no reason to stop smiling,
and this is proven by the heroes of the first comic novel to win the Booker Prize.
"When one reads something as exceptional as the novel 'The Finkler Question,' one is tempted not to write a review, but to insistently suggest to the reader to go and buy as many copies of this book as possible. [...] Intelligent, sparkling, full of understanding and humanity, it is written with the refined craftsmanship of a great writer."
